Backstreet locals pub in the 2024 GBG so out I trudged. Looks tidy from the outside, however it’s a gloomy and somewhat careworn interior. Just cask two on over six, GK OSH and a wheat beer from Beer Mats Brewery which was flat as a pancake (NBSS 2). Staring match with the pub dog was the highlight of a pretty ropey 15 minutes; I didn't see anything to entice me back and its GBG listing seems mysterious. Some other sub-optimal picks sampled during the day makes me think the local CAMRA branch have too many in their allocation.

The Coal Heavers Arms was busy with a local crowd late doors on a recent midweek evening. The bar runs up the left wall facing banquette seating that sits under a television up the right. To the left is a dartboard and seating sits either side of a log burner. The bar supports eight hand pumps with four in operation that were drawing GK Old Speckled Hen and Deuchars alongside Woodforde’s Norfolk Nog and Parson James.

A back street local with a slightly run down feel to it. Eight hand pumps, serving mostly beers from the Milton brewery. Our visit was prolonged by the barman, apparently new to the pub, having difficulty getting the computerised till to work properly. Not his fault - he'd been left without adequate training or supervision - but at what turned out to be a busy time it was disappointing that someone didn't come to help him out. The beer was ok, but the landlord's evident preference for a quiet life over providing a good experience for his customers has led to a low mark from me.

Date of visit: 5th December 2015
